Hearing that a Teen Mom star is contemplating quitting the show is nothing new to fans of the show. In fact, since the show has been on the air for over a decade now, fans have begun to wonder how much longer it will last!
But there are some cast members that we’re pretty sure will go down with Teen Mom whenever it gets canceled, and Kailyn Lowry is one of them. After all, now that Jenelle is gone, she’s probably the most infamous member of the cast!
But now, it looks like Kailyn’s time on the show might be up. Here’s why she would quit!
When it comes to staying out of Teen Mom drama, there seems to be a simple solution: just don’t get involved in anyone else’s lives!
But for Kailyn Lowry during the Teen Mom 2 reunion, this really wasn’t an option.
During the reunion, MTV decided to have the Young and Pregnant cast members take the stage, and it wasn’t long before their segment devolved into drama and even violence! (Don’t worry -- we’re going to get into that)!
And for some reason, Kailyn Lowry was the only Teen Mom 2 cast member on the stage. So even if she wanted to, it was impossible for her to avoid the drama!
Here’s how it all went down.
As it turns out, Jade Cline and Ashley Jones are harboring a lot of tension toward one another!
“There were rumors that it was between Ashley or Jade to come to Teen Mom 2, and then it evolved and escalated,” Kailyn explained after the tension became clear. Then Jade started yelling!
“Let’s just cut the bullsh*t!” Ashley said. “You accused me of lying about Teen Mom 2!” She accused Jade of coming into her DMs, and Jade revealed that Ashley called her mother was “a crack headed b*tch.”
By this point, half of the cast members were on their feet and Dr. Drew was attempting to intervene.
“I’m a grown a** woman,” Jade yelled, to which Ashley replied, “So be about it!”
Kailyn, who has been around the block a few times, can be heard telling Jade, “Walk off, just walk off.” Eventually, Jade does exit.
“You b*tches act like it’s me that’s the problem. I’m not the motherf*cking problem!”
In the middle of Ashley confronting each of the Young and Pregnant cast members one by one, Kailyn tried to mitigate. She told Kayla to switch spots with her so that she’d be farther down on the couch and further from Ashley.
But Nessa interjected. After all, Nessa’s job is to keep ratings high by stirring up drama. So it’s no wonder she didn’t want Kailyn to de-escalate!
In the scene, Nessa can be heard saying “Kail,” in a scolding voice. It’s clear that she tells Kailyn not to move where she is on the couch, and Kailyn was not happy with this.
Kailyn stands up in the middle of the fight and walks off the stage! “Bye!” she says while she leaves. “Bye, Nessa!”
The tension between Ashley and the rest of the cast members only got worse as the episode went on, and we’ll get back to that. But first, let’s get Kailyn’s take on what went down, and why she might be leaving the show!
Kailyn took to Instagram to give her side of the story.
“Really quickly, I just want to address everything that happened on the third part of the reunion last night,” Kailyn shared on her story. “I did not watch it, mainly because I didn’t want to relive what happened. Everyone keeps commenting and messaging me asking me what Nessa said to me that p*ssed me off,” she shared.
Kailyn revealed, “It wasn’t just the fact that she told me to sit back. It was the fact that I had tried to stop the whole situation to begin with. I had my reunion drama two seasons ago and I regret how I acted and I regret so much of that day that I wasn’t going to let MTV put Ashley and Jade in a situation where they’re pinned against each other.”
Kailyn even brought this to the attention of her higher ups. “So I had actually gone up to the producers prior to being on stage with the Young and Pregnant cast and that there was no real reason for me and Jade to be on stage with the Young and Pregnant girls,” she shared.
She went on,
“I just also wanted to add that one of the Teen Mom 2 cast members met me in my room after the fact and literally asked one of the producers why Kail is always picked to do the bullsh*t of the show. And I in my heart of hearts believe that MTV thought that I was going to egg on the drama just based on my history… I feel like I’ve grown a lot since then and it kind of irritates me that I was picked to be in the middle of all this drama.”
She added, “I don’t think there was a real reason to have us all up there.”

Kailyn Quits Reunions After Feuds Get Physical
Despite being a show about parenting, single motherhood, and relationships, the Teen Mom franchise has some of the most explosive reunions on TV. Over the years, the reunions went from simple, emotional affairs to being an annual verbal and sometimes physical fight for the girls. If security wasn’t called at least once, was it really a Teen Mom reunion?
The Teen Mom 2 cast just returned from New York City where they filmed their most recent reunion, and for drama lovers, this reunion did not disappoint. Here’s all the behind-the-scenes drama from this season’s reunion.
Sometimes, when it comes to the Teen Mom cast, it’s hard to pinpoint exactly where feuds begin. But much like their predecessors, the Young and Pregnant girls are good at holding grudges and keeping beef stewing. Things got so bad between Jade Cline and Ashley Jones that Jade recently refused to film with Ashley.
“Jade feels that Ashley has shaded her multiple times, especially right after it was announced that Jade had been picked for ‘Teen Mom 2,'” an insider revealed to The Ashley’s Reality Roundup. “She said that Ashley was telling people on social media that Jade only got the ‘Teen Mom 2’ job because Ashley turned the producers down.”
Jade was reportedly also mad that Ashley was “shading” her when news came out that Jade and her ex Sean Austin were being sued for falling behind on their $900 monthly rent they owed on their Indiana home.
When the news came out, Ashley tweeted, “Man if my rent was 900 dollars I’d be stacking to bad all you gone get in the bay is a bedroom in someone’s house where you can’t even use the living room.”
Even though it seems like a pretty targeted quote, Ashley has insisted that it’s not about Jade.
“First of all what the f**k are you talking about,” Ashley said in response to accusations of drama-starting. “We all know by now if I wanted to say a name I would. I’m simply referring to the fact that I have to pay to be alive and no one asked me if I could afford it before bringing me into the universe. Lighten up hoe…”
Before the reunion, the threats became more concrete.
“B*tches wanna be hard at the reunion,” Ashley wrote in an Instagram story. “I will beat you f*ck up. Period. You know my hotel number.”
She went on, “And I don’t do blems so just no [Kayla Sessler] and jade. The next time y’all wanna take y’all shoes off be about it b*tch. Cause you can’t whoop me, and I’ll wait.”
Apparently, Ashley even wanted to meet up with Jade in New York so they could throw hands! She posted an image of the M&M’s store in Time Square, writing “B*tch I said meet me at m&ms ??? Wya ??”
Soon, rumors began to stir that something serious went down between the three girls at the reunion. In fact, a production insider spilled to Champion Daily that things got physical, sharing,
“A massive fight broke out at the Teen Mom 2 reunion. MTV invited a bunch of people in addition to the Teen Mom 2 cast this time around, including the cast of Teen Mom Young and Pregnant and Catelynn and Tyler from Teen Mom OG. While Catelynn Lowell and Tyler Baltierra already revealed why they were appearing- to talk with Chelsea Houska and Cole DeBoer about Chelsea’s anxiety- the cast of Young and Pregnant was there to be featured on the stage with the Teen Mom 2 cast.”
“Just to set the record straight, no one was ‘jumped’ at the reunion,” Jade wrote on Twitter. “There was no physical altercation. Ashley is in her feelings and wanted to start drama with everyone and basically looked like a fool. Now she’s online ‘spilling tea’ when in all reality everything she says is a COMPLETE AND UTTER LIE.”
She went on,
“Ashley you’re out of your f*cking mind. Get help. The way you acted in front of the whole world on the reunion was insane. Talking about people kids and family’s is low. You’re a pathetic a** individual and no one beleives your bullsh*t. Get help. The way you acted as a woman and as a mother is sickening. Once the reunion airs everyone will see the truth and exactly what went down. You’re a compulsive liar and need to snap back into reality.”
Kayla also took to Instagram to share her side of the story.
“Ashely and I did NOT get into it over Jade,” she wrote. “I was upset with Ashley because she brought up my kids. I feel like that was taking it too far. Before yesterday, Ashley and I had no problems.”
She explained:
“No one jumped anybody… Security was at ALL of our hotels last night. Including Ashley’s. We were not allowed to leave our hotels unless security was with us… When Bri and I were hanging out in my hotel room the previous night, EVERYONE was invited… When Bri and I saw Ashley’s insta story saying she always feels excluded, we messaged her asking if we could all talk before we did our segment. Ashley said no there’s no need.”
Meanwhile, all of this drama seems to be getting to Kailyn Lowry, and this may be the last reunion that we’ll see her at.
“Say no to things that are not good for your mental health. I.e. teen mom reunions,” Kailyn wrote.
She went on, “Every year I say I’m not going. Every year I give in. Every year I am apart of bulls---. This time I’ve reflected, accepted responsibility [and] wanted to do better," she wrote. "This year, I get dragged into bullsh*t that had NOTHING to do with me."
She even called out the network, writing, “@MTV stop putting girls who do not like each other on the same stage. Stop putting girls in a situation where they feel like they need to prove themselves."
“I promise y’all, nobody better even think about asking me to attend another reunion,” she wrote.
